What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Mr Jones Watches A perfectly useless afternoon

Mr Jones Watches A perfectly useless afternoon is widely praised for its creative, fun, and original design, with reviewers and owners alike highlighting its vibrant colors and ability to serve as a conversation starter. The watch is considered well-made for its price, featuring a unique aesthetic where a figure's leg indicates the hour and a rubber duck shows the minutes. Some owners report the blue nylon strap can be small in diameter. One reviewer noted the Milanese bracelet was too shiny and opted to brush it and the lugs for a more subdued look. The mechanical variant uses an STP1-11 automatic movement with a 44-hour power reserve and acceptable accuracy, while the quartz variant features a unique dial design with hour markers integrated into the watery visual. Overall, owners and reviewers rate Mr Jones Watches A perfectly useless afternoon highly for its imaginative design and good value.

Pagani Design PD-1728

Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1728 for its attractive appearance, gorgeous pearly dial, and surprisingly good lume. However, community members consistently flag its 14mm thickness as excessive for the style, and some find the bracelet's screw pins difficult to adjust. One owner notes the watch gained approximately 20 seconds over a week and expresses annoyance at the lack of a date window. On balance, owners find the Pagani Design PD-1728 a visually appealing watch, with its primary drawbacks being its thickness and bracelet adjustability.
